Reason I like Peds #712: my husband used to think I got hit on a lot at work (too much Greys Anatomy) and definitely not true. The most sexual it has gotten is that a 5 year old with trisomy 21 admired my socks today, touched them and then ran his hand up my calf under my scrubs.

Long nights, Short years. I can’t believe this remarkable group of UofAZ Surgery Residents Chiefs are graduating Saturday!

I was going to say baby inguinal hernias but I can be stumped at any patient age.

This new commercial from Mothers Against Greg Abbott is one of the best political ads I’ve ever seen.

Building the #pipeline to ensure #pedsurgbestsurg remains so, with Samir Gadepalli, Erika Adams Newman, Eunice Huang and Marjorie Arca just to name a few…future APSA Surgeons start here!

I spent so long getting here, hell yes I’d keep doing it. I might just have a good time spending lottery money on research I wanted to do.

I’ll eat almost anything free I find so sure chocolate cumin Cheeto ravioli

When I have a good day, I intend to tweet- reason #7014 why Peds surg is great, eg went to a parade for a kid leaving the hospital. Then there is a loss or a difficult NAT and I don’t want to post. There is both but the good more than outweighs the bad. #pedsurgbestsurg

Wow. Well done commercial. Wow.

This is one of the best political ads I’ve ever seen. Incredibly powerful and moving. President Biden is the right choice for 2024 and it’s not even close. Please share this around. It needs to be seen.

THEY’RE EATING CATS!!

"And then he said, 'They’re eating the dogs! They’re eating the pets!'"

EIGHTY TWO percent. I had a 2nd trimester miscarriage in my first year as a consultant surgeon. It was devastating. She would have been 17 now. It's just awful to think this is such a common experience for women surgeons. 💔💔💔 #GenderEquity #ILookLikeASurgeon

Still waiting for Trump to pay the half million he owes. Maybe he’s making a special Halloween delivery to the Duke City? We won’t hold our breath.

Congrats to all who matched. For those who didn’t- cry, scream, yell, take a deep breath… then get up again. This is a different beginning than you imagined but struggle will make you better. 14 years ago, I didn’t match. Now I’m a pediatric surgeon. Your future is still bright.
